attachment sight for ribosomesF
Hyper- Answer: Above
Hypertonic Answer: Solution that has greater osmotic pressure than the cytosol
Hypo- Answer: Below
Hypotonic Answer: Solution that has a lesser osmotic pressure than the cytosol
Inter- Answer: Between
Interphase Answer: Stage between mitotic divisions of a cell

, Pinocytosis Answer: Process in which a cell takes in tiny droplets of liquid
Pro- Answer: Before
-som Answer: Body
Ribosome Answer: Tiny spherical organelle composed of protein and RNA that supports protein
synthesis
Vesic- Answer: Bladder
Vesicle Answer: Small, sack like organelle that contains substances to be transported within the
cell or secreted it is membranous and it can contain materials made in cell
Cellular Reprogramming Answer: Technology that brings a specialized cell back to a stage when
it can respecialize in any of several ways
Nerve cell Answer: neuron
Neuron Answer: cells with extensions that are ablel to conduct bioelectric impulses from one
body part to another
Epithelial cell Answer: skin cells that cover the external body surface and line the internal
surfaces of organs
Muscle cells Answer: Slender and rod-like, these cells contract and pull closer the structures
they're attached to
Differentiated Answer: Cells with specialized characteristics that form from less specialized
cells that divid and express specific genes
Nucleus Answer: Innermost and enclosed by a thin membrane. It contains DNA (genetic
material)
Nuclear envelope Answer: Thin membrane enclosing the nucleus
Cytoplasm Answer: The contents of a cell that includes the gel-like cytosol and organelles
enclosed by the cell membrane. DOES NOT include the nucleus.
Organelle Answer: Specialized structure that houses biochemical reactions
